Identifying a Transcription Factor’s Regulatory Targets from its Binding Targets
ChIP-chip data, which shows binding of transcription factors (TFs) to promoter regions in vivo, are widely used by biologists to identify the regulatory targets of TFs. However, the binding of a TF to a gene does not necessarily imply regulation. Thus, it is important to develop computational methods which can extract a TF's regulatory targets from its binding targets. We developed a method, ca...
متن کاملIdentifying targets of multiple co-regulating transcription factors from expression time-series by Bayesian model comparison
The technical report is divided into three main sections. Section 2 describes the dynamical models for gene transcription that assume joint regulation of genes by multiple transcription factors (TFs). Section 3 presents the Bayesian methodology for learning the profiles of the TFs by using a small set of target genes with known connectivity as the training data. Section 4 applies the model to g...
متن کاملTranscription profile of Escherichia coli: genomic SELEX search for regulatory targets of transcription factors
Bacterial genomes are transcribed by DNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RNAP), which achieves gene selectivity through interaction with sigma factors that recognize promoters, and transcription factors (TFs) that control the activity and specificity of RNAP holoenzyme. To understand the molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation, the identification of regulatory targets is needed for all the...
متن کاملTargetRNA2: identifying targets of small regulatory RNAs in bacteria
Many small, noncoding RNAs (sRNAs) in bacteria act as posttranscriptional regulators of messenger RNAs. TargetRNA2 is a web server that identifies mRNA targets of sRNA regulatory action in bacteria. As input, TargetRNA2 takes the sequence of an sRNA and the name of a sequenced bacterial replicon. When searching for targets of RNA regulation, TargetRNA2 uses a variety of features, including cons...
متن کاملIdentifying transcription factor functions and targets by phenotypic activation.
Mapping transcriptional regulatory networks is difficult because many transcription factors (TFs) are activated only under specific conditions. We describe a generic strategy for identifying genes and pathways induced by individual TFs that does not require knowledge of their normal activation cues. Microarray analysis of 55 yeast TFs that caused a growth phenotype when overexpressed showed tha...
